There is only one medicine shop in the whole Changlefang, right next to Happy Forest.
Others think Changlefang is a slum with little profit and are unwilling to open a pharmacy here.
Happy Forest is prosperous, but how many people can get sick on one street? Opening a pharmacy here will only make you lose money.
But the shopkeeper of Wangji Drug Store has a longer-term thinking than others.
The poor cannot afford to see a doctor. They rely on support for minor illnesses. Only when they can no longer survive will they come to the drugstore or see a doctor.
At that time, he can open his mouth and kill the lion fiercely.
Even a broken ship has three-pound nails. No matter how poor the people in Changlefang are, they can still squeeze out some oil and water.
Therefore, the business of his Wangji Drug Store is not only not bad, but also makes more money than some drug stores in bustling markets.
Shopkeeper Wang of Wangji Pharmacy is about sixty years old. He is so fat that he doesn't look like a doctor, but looks like a butcher who kills pigs.
At this time, shopkeeper Wang was holding an emerald green bracelet and admiring it.
The color of the jade bracelet is as clear as water, and there are some hollow patterns engraved on it, which looks very extraordinary.
"It's a pity that there is only one bracelet. If it were a pair, the price would be several times higher.
I just don’t know which family the little girl belongs to last time, otherwise I might be able to get the other bracelet if I use some tricks."
Shopkeeper Wang shook his head regretfully, put the bracelet back into the box, and planned to go to the pawn shop to exchange it for silver when he had time.
"Be quick! Don't be lazy! Otherwise, all your monthly payment will be deducted!"
Shopkeeper Wang scolded the clerk in the pharmacy. Just as he was about to get up, he saw a handsome young man walking in holding a little girl.
Shopkeeper Wang's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this little girl. Isn't this the little girl who came to his drugstore to steal medicine a few days ago?
"Haha! How dare you, little girl, come here! You wasted so many herbs on me last time, and this bracelet is not enough to compensate you! Give me the other one!"
Xin'er was startled by Shopkeeper Wang. She tightly grasped the hem of Su Xin's clothes and said aggrievedly: "But I have already returned the medicine."
"Hmph! Can the medicine that has been touched by your dirty hands still be used?" Shopkeeper Wang snorted coldly, with a look of disdain on his face.
Su Xin patted Xiner's little head and looked at shopkeeper Wang indifferently: "What kind of medicine requires two jade bracelets to pay for it?"
Only then did Shopkeeper Wang notice Su Xin and sneered: "Are you a family member of this little girl? Look, what she got last time was pure Liaodong Korean ginseng, which was shipped from the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
It was transported from the Eastern Jin Dynasty to our Zhou Dynasty, a distance of tens of thousands of miles, and each Korean ginseng is worth hundreds of taels! She ruined seven or eight of my ginseng at one time, can you afford to accompany me?"
Shopkeeper Wang also specially took out a box of Korean ginseng wrapped in red cloth and placed it in front of them, as if he was sure to eat them.
"Liar! You lied! This is not what I took last time!" Su Xiner clenched her fists and shouted aggrievedly.
"Humph! I said yes!" Shopkeeper Wang looked at Su Xin and sneered: "Boy, please take out the other jade bracelet for me, otherwise I will report it to the official now, and you will wait to go to the prison to eat it.
Go to jail!”
Shopkeeper Wang has the most experience in dealing with ordinary people like Su Xin.
As long as the government scares them, they will definitely obey.
The eight-character Yamen opens to the south, so don't come in if you have reason or money.
Since ancient times, this government office has not been prepared for the poor.
But to Shopkeeper Wang's surprise, he didn't see a trace of panic in Su Xin's eyes. The young man was always so calm.
After a long silence, Su Xin finally spoke: "I have never eaten prison food, but I believe you will not be able to eat soon."
"You kid still dare to threaten me?" Shopkeeper Wang sneered: "Do you know the Flying Eagle Gang? I pay dozens of taels of money to the Flying Eagle Gang every month. Believe it or not, as soon as I open my mouth now, you will immediately
Your legs will be broken by the Flying Eagle Gang and thrown out!"
"Old Huang, come in." Su Xin shouted softly.
Upon hearing Su Xin's words, Huang Bingcheng immediately walked in with eight gang members.
"Hey! Mr. Huang, why are you here?" Seeing Huang Bingcheng come in, shopkeeper Wang immediately ran towards him with his short, fat legs.
Huang Bingcheng has been with the Flying Eagle Gang for more than ten years.
When Liu Sandao was the leader in the past, although he trusted Mr. Sun and other brothers who had been following him, the work of collecting regular money still had to be left to experienced veterans like Huang Bingcheng.
Therefore, Shopkeeper Wang was very familiar with him. When the Flying Eagle Gang first occupied Happy Forest, he gave Huang Bingcheng a few taels of silver and asked him to take care of his shop.
"Boss, what are your orders?" Huang Bingcheng didn't even look at Shopkeeper Wang, but lowered his head and asked Qin Yu respectfully.
"Boss...Boss!?" Shopkeeper Wang was dumbfounded.
This young man is actually from the Flying Eagle Gang? And Huang Bingcheng, an old man from the Flying Eagle Gang, actually calls him boss!
Huang Bingcheng looked at Shopkeeper Wang coldly: "Now let me introduce you again. My boss, Su Xinnai, is the adopted son of the big boss Mr. Hu. He is the new junior boss and is responsible for taking charge of Happy Forest.
Fatty Wang, you are very capable, the blackmail actually hit my boss, do you think you are tired of living?"
Shopkeeper Wang was suddenly sweating profusely, and his short legs were trembling, almost unable to support his fat body.
For a businessman like him with small assets, they are not afraid of the government.
If the government comes to make trouble for them, they will have to spend money to eliminate the disaster. They can just spend money to take care of it.
What they can't afford to offend the most are Jianghu gangs like the Flying Eagle Gang.
Doing business is all about being friendly and making money. If you encounter such a gang that is aggressive and aggressive, they will have 10,000 ways to kill you.
Even if it costs you your life, it will make it impossible for you to survive here.
"Boss Su, I can't see Taishan, please spare me this time!"
Shopkeeper Wang burst into tears and immediately returned the bracelet to Su Xin. He also attached a handful of banknotes with great discernment. Su Xin glanced at it and saw that it was no less than three hundred taels.
"Spare you? Haha." Su Xin chuckled without knowing why, and walked out of the store with Xin'er in his arms.
Shopkeeper Wang was shocked by Su Xin's smile and didn't understand what he meant.
Huang Bingcheng chased him out with a ruthless look in his eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Boss, do you want to kill this Fatty Wang?"
Although Huang Bingcheng was very flattering in front of Su Xin, he was still a figure who had been in the Flying Eagle Gang for more than ten years. Although he was not very good at fighting, he had killed people.
Su Xin shook his head and said softly: "The old man doesn't have many years left to live. Beating him to death would be too cruel. Let's cripple him."
For some reason, Huang Bingcheng suddenly felt a chill rising from his heart when he heard Su Xin's indifferent words.
He nodded and walked into the shop again.
Shopkeeper Wang's screams suddenly came from the room: "Don't come over! What are you going to do!? If you dare to touch me, the government will not let you go! Ah! Ah!"
Su Xin patted Su Xiner's head and covered her ears to prevent her from hearing the screams of shopkeeper Wang.
Seeing Shopkeeper Wang who was lying on the ground and had no strength to even hum, Huang Bingcheng touched his chin and said: "Okay, stop hitting him. If you hit him again, he will be beaten to death."
After hearing his words, the eight gang members stopped.
Looking at the several drugstore clerks huddled in the corner, Huang Bingcheng sneered: "Bandage this damn fat man, don't let him die. If the government comes over later, you should know what to say."
Several of the clerks nodded repeatedly, and even if they were brave enough, they would not dare to provoke the Flying Eagle Gang.
"Xin'er, let's go home."
Su Xin picked up Xin'er and put the bracelet into her hand, but a trace of doubt arose in her heart.
The style and material of this bracelet are also too good, not something the Su family can have.
But Su Xin's impression of his own body as a child has long been blurred, and it's not even as clear as Xin'er's memory.
After asking Xiner a few questions, she couldn't explain, so Su Xin thankfully didn't ask.
After settling Xin'er at home and arranging for people to take good care of her, Su Xin asked Huang Bingcheng to find her: "Old Huang, gather all the shop owners in Happy Forest to Zuiyue Building to discuss matters."
He still has a main mission to earn ten thousand taels of silver, and he still has to fish out the money in the Happy Forest.
But he, Su Xin, was not Liu Sandao, so of course he would not go to death to plunder those businessmen and bosses. That would be just killing the goose and taking the eggs.
Huang Bingcheng showed a look of understanding when he heard this.
When a new official takes office, he must have three things to do. In the past, when Liu Sandao took office, they were very filial.
Su Xin is the boss now. If they don't shed some blood, will they still want to hang out in Happy Forest in the future?
Seeing Huang Bingcheng's expression, Su Xin knew what he was thinking, but he did not correct it. He would understand it by then anyway.
